Hi,
I have a project which references few com objects in a list (for each). I need to copy one object within the loop and compare it with the second one in iteration.
I'm not sure how to copy a com object by value. Please help.
Thanks.

Most likely, by "copy by value", you mean cloning. Please see: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.object.memberwiseclone%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^] (COM objects, ones they are used in .NET, are no different).

On this page, see also the comments on deep cloning.
